The party at the Riverside House on Friday evening last, notwithstand­ ing the rain, drew out eighty-one couples, and all had a rousing good time. In fact, it was one of the most enjoyable parties of the season. On Wednesday evening last, being the twenty-fifth anniversary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. H. K. Wight- man, a few of their friends gathered there in the evening and enjoyed a real social time. liefore leaving they presented Mrs. Wight man with a beautiful silver pitcher as a token of their regards with the wish that her­ self and family might live to celebrate their golden wedding under as pleas­ ant and favorable circumstances as those of the present.

IRlKin Courier.1 The northern Illinois district is to day experiencing the anomolv of a shortage in milk productions, following- one of the greatest crop years in his­ tory. Farmers are said to be laying the blame to the low prices paid by the milk companies and many of them are using their crops for more profitable means, it is said. According to Klmer .1. Fellows of St. Charles, there has been an unusual scarcity of milk for some time, but that as usual, the supply is gradually reaching the demand and there will soon be a surpliy^ with the passing of the holidays. Mr. Fellows declared that milk has been scarcer this year than for several years. In a statement to a Courier reporter over the long distance phone yester­ day, Mr. Fellows said that it was not the pasturage that was to blame, that this had hardly ever been better than last year. He said that the low prices paid by the Bordon people had caused many farmers to use their feed for other purposes and quit the production of milk, that it was cheaper and less laborious. It is customary for the milk supply to exceed the demand directly after the holidays and there is generally a shortage just before Christmas, but this year il has been greater than in some time. Many bottling plants who have pur­ chased the co-operative creameries thruout the state are now getting their milk into Chicago and this is relieving the shortage considerably. F-. S. Kno, superintendent of the liorden Condensed Milk company, said yesterday that there was a shortage in milk but that the factories are getting enough. Farmers are under a thirty day contract to supply certain quanti­ ties of milk. Bell ' ' • fa .
